What needles should I use for Saxenda?
I have a drug saxenda but I do not have a needle I know that they are to be from the company novofine but it matters what will be the thickness and length of the needle because I do not know what to buy and there are different thickness lengths on what it depends?

Needles suitable for administering Saxenda are, for example: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/48855/igly-do-penow-bd-micro-fine-plus-igla/apteki?pvid=258011 https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/54708/novofine-igly-do-penow-insulinowych-igla/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/61649/insupen-igly-do-penow-pic-indolor-igla/apteki?pvid=256082 On the pages attached above, you can compare the prices of needles in online pharmacies and place an order with home delivery or collection at the pharmacy. After each administration of the drug, the needle in the pen should be changed.

In the intact package of the dose of 0.25 mg should be 4 needles.
Yesterday I bought lex, I start treatments. And my surprise... no needles... for such a price they skimped on the set even for the first days of needles???

After each administration of the drug, it is recommended to change the needle. It is best to do it in such a way that before administering the drug, we mount the needle, administer the drug, remove the needle and put the cap on it, throw it away. We store the pen without a needle. With the next application, we put on a new needle.
I have a question. When using pen needles, do I have to change the needle or one on one pen every time?

Ogólnie są dostępne igły NovoFine o długości 6 mm lub 8 mm i grubości 32G. Producent nie zaleca stosowania innych igieł niż tych do 8 mm i grubości od 32G ze względu na bezpieczeństwo stosowania leku.
Bo z tego co widzę to novofine nie mają grubości 32
Czy coś się stanie jeśli użyje igły 30MG?
